The Open-Source 0 A.D. Game Gets An Alpha Build

Phoronix: The Open-Source 0 A.D. Game Gets An Alpha Build

Back in July we reported on the 0 A.D. game going open-source, an OpenGL real-time strategy title that had been in development for nearly a decade but hadn't yet had a stable release so the decision was made to take the game open-source in hopes of spurring new development efforts. Well, just a little over a month after that announcement, the first alpha release of 0 A.D. is now available...

I have to say I'm pretty impressed. The game is far from feature complete, and really not much of a game at this stage of development, but it's very pretty looking and seems extremely promising. The Fedora package installed without a hiccup and I had fun just messing around with what's been implemented so far. A big thumbs up to the devs.
